RICH & MOIST DARK CHOCOLATE CAKE (USES CAKE MIX)



Rich & Moist Dark Chocolate Cake (Uses Cake Mix) image

This is a decadent and rich moist dark chocolate cake recipe, but it's quick & easy as a boxed cake mix is used. You can make this simple in a bundt pan & serve without frosting with just a dusting of confectioners sugar... or you can prepare it our favorite way by making it into a delicious layer cake using canned or homemade dark chocolate frosting... This is my hubby's favorite that I make for him on Valentine's Day and his Birthday every year...
